One For The Money
This is my first time reading a Janet Evanovich book. This is book 1 in a series that I believe at this point has close to 20 books! I decided to give it a try since I already heard good things about the author and the movie was coming out.
The original book was written in the early 90's and it is really written for it's time. The references to pop culture, cars and fashion give the story a dated feel. But, I found it interesting. The story is centered on Stephanie Plum a 20 something year old with out a job or car. She joins a cousin in the bounty hunter business looking to make some quick cash. Stephanie is quirky and a regular woman. I love that as a character she can laugh at herself.
I really enjoyed the book. It was a light read and had some really funny parts. I still haven't seen the movie, but plan to see it. I also plan to read more of these books. I would recommend it for anyone how likes chick lit.
